A financial news terminal aggregates breaking market-moving news from many institutional sources into a single live feed. Unlike a generic news reader, a trading terminal is tuned for speed and signal density — it surfaces what actually moves prices, classifies impact, and integrates with related tools like the economic calendar and live market data.
Trading News Terminal aggregates 300+ institutional sources, classifies each headline by impact and asset, and delivers updates in real time to the browser, mobile (PWA) and Telegram.
An economic calendar is a scheduled list of upcoming macroeconomic data releases (CPI, NFP, GDP, central bank decisions, etc.) and events. Each entry shows the date/time, country, forecast and previous reading, then the actual figure once published.
It matters because these releases routinely cause the largest intraday moves in FX, equities and bonds. Traders use the calendar to manage exposure around volatile events, prepare directional thesis ahead of releases, and react when the actual prints beat or miss consensus.
Impact tagging classifies how much a piece of news historically moves markets. HIGH = top-tier events that consistently cause large moves (Fed/ECB rate decisions, NFP, CPI, GDP, geopolitical shocks). MEDIUM = secondary releases that move markets in specific contexts (PMI, retail sales, earnings of major caps). LOW = minor data or context news with limited price impact.
Filtering by HIGH-only is a common workflow for active traders who only want signal, not noise.
It depends on your timeframe. Scalpers (M1–M5) need sub-second latency — a 10-second delay on a Fed surprise can be the difference between catching a 20-pip move and missing it entirely. Day traders (15m–1h) can usually work with a few seconds of delay. Swing/position traders (4h+) are not latency-sensitive — context matters more than speed.
The retail-vs-institutional gap: Bloomberg Terminal and direct wire services deliver in under 1 second; quality retail terminals like Trading News Terminal sit in the 1–3 second range; free tools often have minutes of delay.
A squawk is a hands-free voice-reading service that announces breaking headlines aloud as they arrive — historically the audio system used on professional trading floors so traders could keep their eyes on charts while still hearing news. Modern retail equivalents use text-to-speech to read headlines in real time.
Squawk lets you stay focused on price action while still catching market-moving headlines — useful for traders who watch charts full-screen.
Central banks (Fed, ECB, BoE, BoJ) set short-term interest rates which directly drive currency strength, bond yields and equity valuations. A more hawkish (rate-hiking) stance typically strengthens that currency, raises bond yields and pressures equities. A more dovish (rate-cutting) stance does the opposite.
Beyond the rate decision itself, traders parse the accompanying statement, press conference and dot-plot for forward guidance — that's often where the real move happens.
Primary sources publish original content (Fed, ECB, Treasury, regulatory filings, company press releases). Wire services (Reuters, Bloomberg, AP) employ journalists to break and verify news — these tend to be the fastest and most authoritative. Aggregators consolidate multiple sources into a unified feed and add value through filtering, classification, translation or integration with other tools.
For active traders, a good workflow combines a wire service or aggregator (for breadth and speed) with direct primary sources (for the actual statement text).
Crypto has become increasingly correlated with risk assets — Bitcoin and major altcoins typically move with equities on macro shocks (Fed hawkishness pressures both, dovish surprises help both). The correlation is strongest during high-volatility events.
Crypto-specific news (regulation, ETF flows, large on-chain moves) creates additional moves that don't affect traditional markets. Watching both macro and crypto-native flow is required for crypto traders.
Basic (free): HIGH-impact news feed, 24/7 multi-source aggregation, asset filters, economic calendar in 6 languages, Telegram DM alerts.
Pro (€40/month): everything in Basic plus sub-second real-time feed, AI Daily Playbook (3–5 educational scenarios with current price grounding), AI directional arrows on every headline (USD ▲ / EUR ▼), 1-click asset filter with deep history (2,000 results vs 500), 7 embedded live financial TV channels, Live Squawk (hands-free voice reading), web push notifications.
When you start the trial, you get full Pro access for 7 days. Card details are required upfront so the subscription auto-converts to paid on Day 7. If you cancel before Day 7 from your billing settings, you won't be charged.
To cancel: open the terminal → click your name (top right) → Manage Subscription → Cancel.
Click your name in the top-right corner → "Manage Subscription" → the Stripe customer portal opens → "Cancel subscription". Pro access continues until the end of your current billing period, then auto-downgrades to Basic.
Yes. From the billing settings you can switch monthly (€40/mo) ↔ annual (€360/yr — saves €120/year vs monthly). Stripe applies a proration credit automatically for any unused days on the previous plan.
The 7-day Pro trial is the refund mechanism — cancel within 7 days at no cost. For longer billing cycles, refunds are evaluated case-by-case. Email [email protected] with your specific situation.
An educational scenario generator that runs 3 times per day (early Europe, US open, late US). For each major asset (USD, EUR, GOLD, SPX, BTC, oil), it produces 3–5 if-this-then-that scenarios grounded on the current price + recent news flow.
The Playbook is educational only — not financial advice. Setups are framed as learning material to help you think about market structure, not as trade signals.
Every headline shows asset chips (USD, EUR, GOLD, SPX, BTC, etc.) on the right side. Click any chip and the feed filters to only show news affecting that asset. Click the same chip again to remove the filter.
On Pro, the filter triggers a deep-history fetch (2,000 results) so you see weeks of context, not just today. Basic users see the last 500 cached items.
For every headline with HIGH or MEDIUM impact, an AI model tags which assets are affected and the direction (▲ bullish / ▼ bearish). For example, "Fed signals more aggressive rate path" might show USD ▲ / SPX ▼ / GOLD ▼.
This is a tagging layer — not a recommendation. Use it as a quick filter to focus on headlines that move your assets.
Hands-free voice reading of every breaking headline the moment it arrives — like a professional trading desk squawk. Pro-only. Toggle from the squawk button in the header. Voice + speed + asset filter are configurable.
